He\u2019s gone 1-2 so far and has yet to turnover the ball \u2014 one of the goals the team had for the rookie when he was named the starter. However, Gabriel has not been able to provide a boost for the struggling offense. He\u2019s averaging just 5.1-yards per attempt, which ranks 38th in the NFL among qualifying QBs.<\/p>\n<p>Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com noted in her latest column that Gabriel continuing to be a game-manager and not a game-changer could lead to Sanders getting the starting nod earlier than expected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith Sanders coming up the learning curve quickly, and displaying his natural arm talent every day in practice, Gabriel must show that he can run an explosive passing attack, or the Browns will be tempted to see what their other rookie can do sooner than perhaps they want to,\u201d Cabot said.<\/p>\n<p>Browns insider Brad Stainbrook echoed that sentiment in a recent post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike I\u2019ve been reporting all season\u2026I want to really stress this point \u2014 people in Berea continue to be very impressed with Shedeur Sanders. His development has turned heads inside the building, and there\u2019s a real sense of excitement about where he\u2019s headed,\u201d Stainbrook said. \u201cIt\u2019s not a matter of if he plays this season, it\u2019s a matter of when.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns Focused on Developing Dillon Gabriel<\/h2>\n<p>Sanders has faced an uphill climb since slipping to the fifth round of the draft. Even as the team\u2019s No. 2 quarterback and primary backup, Sanders continues to face challenges \u2014 including not receiving first-team reps, a luxury Gabriel had when he backed up Joe Flacco.<\/p>\n<p>Browns coach Kevin Stefanski noted the different situations when asked about the rep distribution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith a young quarterback, with Dillon starting, you want to make sure he gets a lot of the reps. It\u2019s different when you have a veteran with Joe,\u201d Stefanski said.<\/p>\n<p>Stefanski did note that Sanders has been getting a lot of reps in practice, just not with the starters. The former Colorado star has also been working overtime, training at a local high school and coming in early to make sure he\u2019s up to speed on everything.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns Looking to Open Things Up With Dillon Gabriel<\/h2>\n<p>The weather was not in Gabriel or the Browns\u2019 favor during their 31-6 Week 7 victory against the Dolphins. Luckily, the defense and the ground game came through for Cleveland. Gabriel passed for just 116 yards in the win.<\/p>\n<p>Browns offensive coordinator Tommy Rees took accountability for the lack of explosive plays in the passing game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA dry day would help start that off, but we just got to trust it. We got to put him in the right spots to see the coverage, trust what he\u2019s seeing, let it go. That starts with us as coaches \u2014 we got to put him in the right positions,\u201d Rees said. \u201cThroughout camp, throughout the preseason, he was not trigger shy on that stuff \u2014 I still don\u2019t think he is. We just got to give him the right looks and make sure that we\u2019re preparing him to trust those things, and see them and let them go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Browns are a 7.5-point road underdog against the New England Patriots this week.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel is under pressure to produce with Shedeur Sanders hot on his heels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":36305,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36304","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cleveland-browns"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
